Not What I Want 4 weeks ago

I just got the packet in the mail and this will not do anything for me. So I am going to call to cancel it first thing Monday morning. I did try so I just have to wait until January.

Health insurance 1 month ago

Deadline: Nov. 15, 2009

I’ve been meaning to get health insurance but keep forgetting – thus, I put this on my goal sheet.

I’m mainly/only interested in getting insurance for catastrophic situations/emergencies.

I looked into HSA and it seemed ok.

I will have some starting October 1, 2009 1 month ago

It’s not United Health Care like my job offers but if all goes well I will be insured October 2009. Then January 2010 I will have the job insurance which is United Health Care. But if I like the insurance I’m about to get for the time being, I may just stick with it. So we will see.

Yay! 5 months ago

A new opening period for health insurance is coming up for part-time employees. July 1-31, I can’t wait!!!!

I've been offered... 5 months ago

But due to our income I didn’t take it. We aren’t struggling with the bills, but I don’t want to make a reason to start.

But I do need it.

We both do.

Next time they offer it, I’m going to take it.

Just the other day I had a migraine for four days straight.

Couldn’t go the hospital, that was the pits.



Maybe? 6 months ago

So, now that I’ve had my hours cut back, I’m making less money. And this means I might be able to qualify for HealthyNY. But we’ll have to see. To be continued…



It's pretty easy, actually 8 months ago

This will probably be the first goal I accomplish.

Here’s a preemptive lesson. Don’t be afraid to go see a doctor even if you don’t have insurance. Sometimes healthcare providers have a sliding-scale or patient assistance program for the uninsured, or you can get prescriptions on the cheap through the mail through their associated pharmacies. See what your options are.

FRUSTARTING! 9 months ago

I can’t get insurance through my job and realistically speaking, I cannot afford health insurance at full cost. Apparently, though I make too much money to qualify for low-cost insurance. I hate the whole stupid system. It’s like if you don’t have kids, you can’t get help!



I can get it at work.. 10 months ago

Through Signa, but I think I can get it cheaper through Humana one.



Waiting to get married 10 months ago

But I do have dental insurance! It’s not great, but it’s something.
